Recording music with onscreen keyboard (Like in garage band)

Help!
I just went through the whole tutorial using the tutorial.iso and read through the manual in LE7. now when I start a new project. I can not get any audio from the on screen keyboard (caplocks key). I just want to compose simple music scores like how you can when recording in garage band using its on screen key board and when you record in GB you can actually see the notes painted on screen when you select the music instrument -ex: "reflective strings". Also when I go into the matrix window and I just want to "draw" notes onto the grid or press the keys in this screen, it won't even let me do that. Can someone tell me how I can get this to work and how I can get it to record on screen? Is anybody else having this problem? I Just want to do the most simple task as that. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

Yes, but see the thing is, I am not getting any audio "at all" when trying to record any kind of software instument. I can hear sound in the tutorial, but not when I start a "new" project from scratch. Is there something I am doing wrong? I can see the meter registering the sound and some times notse will be writing on the screen in the audio object, but not sound emits. Can you tell me if it is the audio object I am on? Even when selecting the default instrument such as the violin or the piano, I still can not hear anything at all when using the on screen keyboard (caplocks key). If you or anyone can help that would be great.

"record enable" buttons not showing up in Garage Band 10.0.3 (I have selected "show record enable"- a space in the track header opens up, but the button is not present. Same with "input moniter".

Look at all the posts in the forum from users with similar problems, it happened with the last Logic update.

Recording Music With Audigy Platinu

I record music with my Audigy and I am trying to get it so I can record my guitar with effects. I can turn the effects on, but it turns it on for everything and when I record, no effects are applied.
I tried messing with the "source" for the effect with no success. I also tried switching my windows sound settings for record and playback...

Voormis,
I think a EMU recording card is in your future. The entry level EMU card is the 0404 and can do exactly what you are looking to do. The higher end cards offer more inputs and better grade converters. Basically if you are looking for something for multitrack recording with effects processing, you should check these cards out.
Right now EMU is selling Factory Re-Certified B-Stock cards at good discounts. You can also check for the cards through many music retailers. Here is the emu website:

HT3988 how to connect external keyboard to the garage band if its possible

how to connect external keyboard to the garage band if its possible,
is any body tried ? I have roland e66 keyboard and im trying to
connect with grage band but i dont know thats is possible??

You can definitely just connect a mouse and keyboard and then an external monitor and it will work. In the power options in the Windows control panel you will have a choice as to what happens when the lid is closed. Set it to "do nothing" and then you can shut the lid of the laptop and use only the external monitor.

I need help with the upgraded version of Garage Band '11. Its totally different.

I am incredibly frustrated with the newest version of Garage Band. I am a choreographer and constantly need to edit music. The work I do is very simple. Just cutting sections of music to make the songs shorter. I have been using Garage Band for years with total ease. I used to be able to just highlight a section of music and click delete. Now all that does is either stretch out all the timing or delete the whole track. I need simple cut edits. PLEASE HELP!!! The help sections do not help at all!

Recording Music With Rock Band Drum Set

I can't seem to get a Rock Band Drum set to record with Garage Band.
When I first plug it in USB the X lights up for a second, and then quickly fades out.
I have heard recording with the Drum set can work, but not for me.
Thanks

he/she is not referring to midi support. Its probably not an equitable trade off to purchase a 600 dollar (piece of junk at that price) midi drum kit for a program as crummy as garage band.
They mean to use the controller as a keyboard keypad. There are drivers to use USB xbox controllers with osx. I too am having problems with them recognizing garage band.
My xbox 360 driver pane also freezes when selected. Possible that is the root of the problem. First program I've used on osx that kills the OS when selected. The controller is "on" and available in the pref pane. But does not actually "start'

Recording music with MacBook Pro

Hello,
Im upgrading but I am unsure whether MacBook Pro will suit my needs.
I want to be able to record up to 16 channels via a firewire audio interface simultaneously into Logic Pro.
I currently use an old iBook G4 with a Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 audio interface but the iBook struggles to record up to 8 channels simultaneously. Im guessing this is because of processing power?
Does anybody know whether MacBook Pro will be suitable?
Does anybody use there MacBook Pro for recording music?
Cheers,
Liam

I have used my 15" Pro for recording music into soundtrack for some minor stuff but it records just beautifully. I would make sure that you get a Pro that is clocked in at a high processing speed. I would liked to have gotten the 17" since that model also has the extra graphics card (not that you need it for sound). Also make sure that the model you do choose has the right about of pins for the firewire. I believe they have changed since the Macbook models.

Permissions problems with sound track pro and garage band

I am having a problem with the loops and sounds in Garageband and SoundTrack Pro. When I attempt to use a sound in garage band, I get an error "an eror occurred result code = -5000 File = Garageband-Temp-54E281E". When I do a search there are about 58 separate folders with loops or effects in them. If I isolate the one I want to use and change the permissions of the folder to everyone read and write I can use the sound, but I don't want to manually change the permissions for 58 seperate folders. I ran repair permissions using disk utility but that did not fix it. Any suggestions, I have a lab of 22 imacs, if it was just one I would just fix the permissions on it but for 22 separate machines, I would like some automation. Thanks in advance for your help.

I'll also add that I'm pretty sure I used this microphone along with the iMic USB a few years ago when I had my 'quicksilver' Mac G4 and it worked with that machine. As noted above, I've tried it with both a 2 channel and both the mono channel settings in Garage Band; but I am using a 1/4" to 1/8" jack adapter in order to plug into the iMic's 1/8" receptacle. The adapter is stereo to stereo, meaning it has both contacts for r & l. That shouldn't make a difference should it? In my experience if you are using mono equipment (like a single microphone) the sound will still be delivered through one of the two channels.

Recording music with T420

Hi all,
I newly received a Lenovo T420. I would like to record some music.. How to record a guitar or a bass with a Lenovo T420? Where should I plug the audio input and with which kind of jack? I have tried using a normal jack to combo audio mini jack cable, plugged in the combo mini jack input of the computer, but there is no answer.
Thanks!
P

Well that is the jack and you'll have to get a spiltter adapter likely which takes the 4 pin 3.5mm and creates a separate Mic, & Speaker jack. I don't know why they did this and don't tell me this is a new standard. Thats a crock its a pain for generic audio connections and the space is always there. They have them on cell phones but its not as big an issue there on computers, discrete ports are needed. Fire that engineer and send him back to the back country working the rice fields.

Problem with onscreen keyboard ipad air

Why are the letters replaced with weird symbols or blank spaces when i turn around my ipad air? It is like that when i use facebook or google maps, really annoying

Just got the Iphone 6 and it paired BT with the car phone system okay. But it will not pair with the audio part where I could play my recorded music with my 5-C. The system will not connect with the phone and the message is that the settings

My toyota Seinna 2011 refuses to connect with my Iphone 6 as a "portable player". Message says for me to adjust the player. On the phone it is searching for other devices but not connecting. Now same phone is paired with the car multimedia system and will take and make calls. Help!

I very much doubt it if you consider how much data Apple release to App developers
to allow them to create apps that work under iOS
Audi being lazy like most of the other motor manufacturers
They will be registered developers and as such get all the info and data they need
